That Kali uses her powers to project an image of Eleven at the entrance of The Upside Down portal, distracting everyone, while the real Eleven escapes. After successfully dodging the military, El <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">travel<\/a>s to a small village to live out the rest of her life. No more battling bad guys. No more government agents who only want to manipulate her powers for geopolitical warfare.<\/p>\n<p>But the question is, was this what really happened?

See, there is a moment during said graduation when Mike clearly experiences an epiphany as the loudspeakers blare their frequencies. Fans say this must be when he started realizing Eleven had to still be alive. Why? Because back when The Upside Down was collapsing, the government had been playing the frequency that terrorizes Eleven and prohibits her from using her powers. When they do so, it hurts Eleven so much she always falls down and covers her ears. But during that scene, even with their speakers blaring, she was holding strong at The Upside Down\u2019s entrance. She wasn\u2019t affected by the government\u2019s frequencies at all. How could this be possible?? So fans believe this supports the theory that the Eleven everyone saw there wasn\u2019t actually Eleven but a projected illusion of her, a mirage if you will.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"no-nose-bleeding\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_Nose_Bleeding\"><\/span>No Nose Bleeding<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Another piece of evidence? During that pivotal moment, we all saw Eleven bring Mike into her mind to psychically communicate with him. Now, usually when she does this, she\u2019s submerged in water. But here she\u2019s not. Also, whenever she\u2019s done this before, her nose in her physical body always starts bleeding. In this scene, after bringing Mike into her mind to tell him good-bye, her nose did <em>not<\/em> bleed. Another strong support to argue that the Eleven everyone saw was just a projected image and not her physical self.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"body-body-body-body\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Body_Body_Body_Body\"><\/span>Body Body Body Body<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If that\u2019s not enough to convince you, fans say Eleven\u2019s arm tattoo of \u201c011\u201d is not visible on either arm of what they believe is the projected image of her. Fans also note how \u201cEleven\u201d is standing in the same stance Kali was both forced into when the government experimented on her, along with the same twitches of the hand. This supports the idea that Kali was fueling the projection of El with her powers.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"bookshelf-clue\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bookshelf_Clue\"><\/span>Bookshelf Clue<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\" class=\"lazy-ad-parent\">\n<div id=\"section-69585c1341a3e-paragraph-slot\" class=\"incontent-ad lazy-ad-slot\" data-base-div-id=\"pb-slot-incontent-2\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>But wait, there\u2019s more!
